          PS that whole deal fucking sucked. I cant remember his name, but the guy who ran it seemed like a solid dude. eastern european of some ilk. I donated a few times through ko-fi. I didnt hear any stirrings of the bullshit he supposedly had to wind up dealing with. I cant fathom why someone would take time to fuck up something like a lemmy instance that someone was doing at a loss essentially

            I think real life and the earlier days of lemmy moderation burned them out! It’s not easy running one of these things and a dude with good intentions may have underestimated the load.

              sure, but based on the announcement rationale for the closure it sounded like just one or two people made it not worth it
